The dream of exploring the universe of two Danish youths was so great that they decided to build their own missiles and spacecraft to fly out to Earth.

Discovery News said that Kristian von Bengtson and Peter Madsen - two young people in Denmark are the first two people in the world to announce they want to build rockets to fly into space.

' This idea sounds crazy but we are not idiots. We have no intention of suicide , 'von Bengtson, 36, the architect, told Discovery News.

Von Bengtson is working for manned spacecraft manufacturing companies for the US government. He loved designing spacecraft but still felt unsatisfied.

' At the US Space Agency, you have the opportunity to work on many interesting projects, but many spacecraft are in stock for 20-30 years. Even many spacecraft were never used , 'he said.

Self-made spacecraft and missiles to fly into space to become the architect's dream since early 2008 when he met Madsen, an astronomer and 39-year-old rocket expert. They formed a non-profit organization called Copenhagen Suborbitals to build spacecraft and spacecraft. This organization raised quite a lot of money from companies. Many people also volunteer for unpaid labor for the organization.

The first result of the two boys is a rocket that can fly to Earth orbit. The launch of the missile test will be carried out later this week. The launch date will be chosen based on weather conditions. The two plan to launch a rocket from a ship on the Baltic Sea. Von Bengtson said he would not be discouraged if the test failed.

Tests for a spacecraft carrying one person will be carried out within the next 3 to 10 years. Then von Bengtson and Madsen will board the spacecraft built by them to fly out of the globe.

Two boys want to launch ships from a pedestal on the Baltic Sea. The Danish government supported the project of von Bengtson and Madsen. According to von Bengtson, the Danish government promised to lend Copenhagen Suborbitals a ship of a marine defense force attached to the crew to recover the missile after the upcoming test launch.

No one could know whether the two boys could fly to space, but von Bengtson said he felt very happy with the project.

' Being able to work daily to fulfill my dream of flying to space is what I want. I'm happy in the process of reaching the goal, not caring about the results , 'he said.
